Take Me Back to Eden was an intense listening experience. This is one of those albums that you have to listen to from start to finish instead of picking out tracks. It perfectly encapsulates everything I listen to in one perfectly arranged and performed collection. I am a big listener of blues, jazz, soul and classical (B.B. King, Frank Sinatra, Adele, Post Malone, Beethoven) but I am predominantly a metal head that listens to pummeling metal/metalcore to the tune of Periphery, Oceano, Suicide Silence, Signs of the Swarm. Deftones still reign supreme on my playlists though. Sleep Token is without a doubt my AOTY, and quite possibly in the top 10 I have ever heard.

It feels like you’re struggling to come up with the term “dotted (quarter) notes,” but that’s what you’re hearing and describing. In this prog/djent genre, it’s almost always an underlying 4/4 with polymeters and/or polyrhythms over it. Once you DO find the 4/4 groove, that’s what makes the impact of these dotted notes and sub-divisions so darn rewarding. 🤘🏼🤩

Would have thought that a swing groove would be something like a 4/4 time signature. Prog metal is the genre that was popularised by Dream Theatre and other bands starting in the mid-eighties, and Sleep Token fits into all of that reasonably well today.

You definitely don't have to lots of weird time signatures. In fact I would dare to say that making music with weird time signatures just for the sake of it often results in crap garbage that is almost unlistenable. Weird time signatures should only be used if they really fit the song and make sense musically. Making music complicated just because makes terrible music that only other weird musicians like to listen to.

So this might be a hot take, but I think the song is actually 4/4 all the way through, but heavily syncopated for several measures in a row that it doesn’t feel like a standard time signature. This is my many years of music in school that lead me to this possible conclusion. I admit, I’m not 100% sure about this, but people who aren’t trained in odd time signatures regularly tend not to write in them without having extensive experimentation doing so.
@667neighbourofthebeast
@667neighbourofthebeast Жыл бұрын
I'm unsure why standard time signatures, such as 2/4, 3/4, 4/4 and 6/8, are considered rudimentary and basic. There can be difficulty performing in any of them. Variations, changes in tempo and key changes do make a composition interesting even if it only makes sense to the composer. The type of music I perform has evolved from simple three part variations of a theme, into an unnecessary complexity of overused syncopation, staccato, pp to ff crescendo in short measures et cetera. I honestly have doubts if the audience appreciates the articulation and direction of the orchestrations, or are just dumbfounded and bewildered by an experience which isn't supposed to be challenging to listen to and analyze. Sometimes one just needs to go back to the roots, to the inspiration, and cut out all the superfluous racket for awhile.

Super versatile time signature for sure.

Absolutely brilliant "band" (actually, singer Vessel writes and performs everything on the albums, except for the astonishing drums, played by "II")... They were phenomenal right out of the gate on their debut "One" E.P., (a true masterpiece from start to finish, IMO), and, from there, even before they'd released their first full album, they'd created some of the most innovative, breathtaking musical offerings in the form of songs like 'Calcutta', Jaws', and Vessel's fantastic remake of the classic OutKast' hit, 'Hey Ya'... It's been a magnificent journey of continuous pleasant surprise, witnessing their evolution and ascent to widespread acclaim...

The machine looks like a giant warhammer droid. They ARE definitely inspired by Tool. I've been a huge Tool fan since Lateralus and II is a beast of a drummer! Being a drummer myself I noticed II has done some drum 🥁 patterns (can't recall which track) that is very similar to what Danny Carey played on "Eulogy". One KZbin comment said they transcend genre, the more I hear the more I agree with that. Their track "Aqua Regia" has what can only be described as dinner jazz piano in the mix too. I recently saw them play at the Apollo and became one with the synth bass. It was that freaking loud and reverberating through my whole body AND I was standing near the back wearing proguard ear plugs. But the summoning practically went viral. At least compared to any previous track by them. Math metal is def another way of describing them but those elements are a bit more Meshuggah in my view. Suffice to say it's sublime music Justin but Igorr is another band that transcend genre. I also first saw them at Download same year I first saw Sleep Token there in 2018 I think. Clown 🤡 core also defy genre.

I thought since yesterday was a rerun and you mentioned you were touring the day prior, IE: the ripped of the beast jacket and your "in" big messy hair, you were probably dragging from being so tired. I'm sorry for quibbling about the rerun. The guitar you are borrowing is GORGEOUS!!! If you have MORE HISTORY regarding the guitar, WOULD LOVE TO HEAR ABOUT IT!!! You get to barrow it, not Harry! You play, his is only for decoration? It's a BEAUTY!!! AND THE SOUND! IT'S LOVELY!!! I'm not much into the video or the music of the band you featured. I really liked the beginning... A LOT, then my interested ears sort of wandered off into hearing the air blowing in my room, my dogs shuffling, me thinking of all the things I have to do... I think there are a million of these sounding bands out there today and the video was boring. The thing was so big only beams of light could come from it. No charm, NO HOOK LINE!! Nothing that sticks that makes me yearn to want to have it or need it and I guess that's the point of this music and all the other bands that sound just like it. They are not following the past and creating the future. I'm never going to remember them because they just aren't memorable to me. They aren't sell outs, which is commendable, but I only like the beginning of the music and that's all I can say about the song. The video I'll remember because it was the most boring video I've seen. I love GUNTHER TUTTI FRUTTI SUMMER LOVE, BIJOK'S song and HER GREAT VIDEO!!! THAT MADE ME LAUGH, BUT LOVE THE VISUALS AND IT BENT MY EARS IN WAYS I'VE NEVER EXPERIENCED, SWOLE BY KONSTANTIN or whomever his artist name may be. It was funny, but different and shot in black and white and the model wearing the white bikini which was a bikini seen in a ton of music videos filmed in Hollywood, THE UBIQUITOUS WHITE BIKINI, and the one man band, the guy in the opened shiny robe playing guitar, playing drums and singing at the same time. That is a video song seller. The song alone is good, but the visual is the BIG SELLER! I CAN'T BELIEVE WHAT I JUST SAW WITH MY EYEBALLS!!! HE WAS DAMN GREAT TOO!!! Sorry to disagree with your analysis with this band (they are really good, just not memorable to me), but this is what makes the music world go round. Also, thank you for sharing what your experience has been like earning a living from music. Not all musicians have the same experience. It's nice to hear what your life in the business has been like and what you've endured. Very much appreciated.

Imho the key to playing off timing, complex stuff and ppl really loving it- is that you need to be good enough that even though you're playing in 7/8- the groove is so clear and unmistakable it grabs you. You don't have to look for it. Listen to Tool, they can play any odd timing and yet the groove is unmistakable, it grabs you and takes you for a ride. They also know how to build up to a 4/4 section or break so well it's unreal- it's like a really good movie that has built to a perfect climax and pay off- very satisfying. I know ppl get tired of Tool heads, some of us can be real pricks- but the band is amazing, you have to admit.
Now, THIS Is F***king Cool.
